Packers Rule Out LB Clay Matthews for Week 3 against Detroit Lions

Coming off a loss to the Minnesota Vikings, the Green Bay Packers needed a turnaroudn effort in Week 3 to avoid being labeled as one of the overhyped teams from the offseason. But if Green Bay's going to win on Sunday against the Detroit Lions, they'll have to do it without linebacker Clay Matthews. Matthews was unable to practice this week with an ankle injury and as a result, will not play this week.
